The uptick in Mahindra's sales comes at a time when the entire industry has been gripped by the semiconductor shortage issue and is posting sales decline due to curtailment in production. Having said that, the surge in Mahindra's sales numbers is primarily attributed to the overwhelming demand for the new Mahindra XUV700 that has bagged over 60,000 bookings. The company has already announced that it will complete all deliveries by January 14 and has dispatched the booked cars to the dealerships across India as delivery begun in the last week of October 2021.
